SXSW | Casual on ‘Dirty Sixth’

March 25, 2015



Grey One Eleven Top + Distressed Crop Denim c/o Express | Pointed Sneakers | Crossbody c/o | Aviator Sunnies c/o SunglassesShop | Location: what’s known as ‘dirty sixth’ or 6th street in Austin, TX

Oh South By…what an experience. A great experience, I must say! I’ve finally back home, and it’s honestly taken me a few days to even comprehend, digest and process the mass amounts of information I learned, people I met, and food I ate {more on that later this week}. Throughout the week, I tried to photograph my looks on-the-fly {huge thanks to Christina for this}, that embraced the energy surrounding SXSW – ‘Dirty 6th’ is a backdrop I couldn’t pass up.

SXSW happened to be my first trip to Austin, so while it may not have been the most ‘authentic’ first impression of the true Austinite culture {oh, and boy is it a culture}, I caught on quite quickly to the casual fashion factor, which I totally LOVED. Not only was it a great change of pace, it was the perfect opportunity to debut my new Express One Eleven pieces – which are so. on. point. Everyone I know loves good quality basics in their life {myself included}. And while not everyone can afford a $150 luxe tee {related brands shall remain unmentioned}, Express has introduced a new collection of basics and casual tops that really do have that luxury/quality feel, at great price points. The collection is selling out quickly so click here to get yours now – new styles will also be available beginning in June. See/shop my look + my favorite one eleven picks below! Sizing note: all styles do run a little big; I’d suggest sizing down.
